Well, it seemed that all the big nasties and evil critters were gone, so Raistlin turns to his companions and says, "Time to go home."

And thus began their incredibly long journey back (... unless someone *cough*Tanis*cough* knows a spell that can allow themselves to instant-travel back to Aelron... and it would just be Tanis, BTW. Ivor and I would be stuck unless I come up with something...)

"If I can meet the captain I could. I didn't recognize the soldier. I know most of the captains in the guards though..all I have to do is meet or see him."

Aleron frowned but nodded; it wasn't the poor man's fault he couldn't be more useful. "That's something at least."

"THIS is why I wish that soldier had answered my questions. I felt something wrong, but could not put my finger on it. I do believe that we are in for an attack, and not by these mercenaries. SOMETHING is out there..I can feel it."

"But you believe we can trust them, for the time being at least? I would prefer not to turn aside help, and I like the idea of leaving our assitance out to be slaughtered less. But neither do I care for admitting imposters into our midst to destroy what we have."

Walker nods. "Better to keep our friends close, and our enemies closer.  I can keep an eye on them if you would like.  That would give our Sergent here a chance to get a look at the Captain."

As the captain and his crew 'snuck' in (without knowing they have already been found out lol)..it becomes a good thing they get inside...

A huge Wyrm like creature erupts from the ground right next to one of the frosty giants.  It latches around the giant, wraps itself around it, and begins to pull it into the ground.  Even as more begin to come up from the ground, causing havoc and mayhem.

Other figures, humanoids erupt from everywhere..some human..some not..all wielding weapons.  They begin to target the undisguised soldiers, etc.

Something is .. wrong though.  A shadow of fear and dread blankets the town..making it difficult for the people within to rally.  A foul, terrible stench fills the air.  The beat of wings is heard..and an enormous creature emerges from the sky.  Bone, and bits of flesh..a long reptilian shaped body, with decayed wings.  Terror is it's name, horror is it's breath.  One of the most feared, the most reviled, and the most powerful of undead creatures. Death has come to the capitol, and it's name is..Dracolich.

Walker gasps..and turns to Aleron.  "Quickly!  The crown!  I have a way of getting us allies, but I need the crown for just a moment.  I give my word, you shall have it back immediately after!"

Aleron took in the chaos breaking out in the capitol and swore creatively. He took off the crown and shoved it unceremoniously in Walker's hands. "Be swift!"

"For the dagger and the necklace, I will also have the others identified.  What say you?" It is a generous offer, it would take a fortune to get the others identified.

((MUHAHAHA...Well this may get ... interesting))

Walker snatches the crown and places it on the ground.  He starts casting a spell.  "Oh divine fates that control our destiny, we plead for thy aid.  Send to us now, our allies, scattered wherever they are in this world.  Call to them, open the way!"

The crown starts glowing, emitting a green mist...and...

Everywhere...Raistlin, Kerym, et all...

A voice is heard in their head.  "The gateway is open..thy have been called..will thy come?" If they answer yes, a portal opens..if not..nothing happens.

Kerym hands over the requested items. "Sounds like a fair deal."

The voice arrives in his mind.

"Now, that seems odd. Brooke, perhaps the acorn could answer a question for me. Should I listen to the voice in my head that says I have been called, and should I come?"

Brooke looks at you "You heard it as well?" she seems surprised.  "According to the acorn, it would be very unwise not to listen to the voice.  Even it will not say why.  So I say we listen to it."

The mage laughs.  "I thought I was the only one who heard it.."

With a flash of light the mage poofs.  Brooke looks at you.  "I must listen to the voice..I am going." she too vanishes in a poof of light.

Back at the capital two very confused humanoids appear in the green mist.

Walker halts the guards from attacking them.  "Any who appear in this mist are not enemies."

Raistlin jumps when he hears the voice, and wonders at just how powerful his mageling friend has become. At least, he assumed it was his friend... the thought that the death-god was able to talk to him directly wasn't the most comforting of thoughts. "Erm... sure?"

"Quit talking to yourself and go look for some dry wood to feed the fire, we leave for the capital at first light."

"Raistlin?!"

*Ivor turns around with great annoyance; his eyes piercing the shadows for the wretched little elf*


He leapt up and drew his blade when he heard the ethereal voice.

"Very well, lead the way."- said Ivor with a frown (was really hoping for a meal and some sleep)

(Ivor has a slight magic resistance, due to his unconventional heritage)

"You think?"

With the new wooden shield being the easiest item for him to grab for defense, he uses it, not knowing what it does. He then casts a blessing, to help all around him with fighting against the creatures. After that, he launches a few bullets at a nearby opponent coming in.

Raistlin just started swearing. Some of the words he made up on the spot. They were colorful and rather creative combinations of swears, and one of the guards nearby begins to blush furiously as the tirade draws to an end.

After catching his breath Raistlin mutters, "Fine" and loads his crossbow, firing it at the nearest nasty thing with sharp teeth.

Ivor a bit flustered (as I said his heritage makes him resistant but not immune, so extra flustered might I add )

"I'm not in the prime physical condition for this!" Shouted as he leapt and ran.

Crashing into obsticles and broken wagons as he went throught street to street, shadow deepening, as he leapt over a ruined stall he landed on something 'soft'.

*Ivor drew his blade lest it it be a creature most foul*

And for the first time in all his travels his caution paid off, for he had caught a bloody pirate by the smell of it (or a dung farmer).

"If you value your life then you will hastily tell me all I wish to know"
(just incase it ain't obvious, I caugt either Alexander or one of his comrades, by accident)

-"First, what unholy city is this, plagued by an unholy abomination and now your kind?"
-"Second, where's your captain and the rest of your ilk?"


(just to clarify, Ivor abandoned the postition in search of either a church or a tavern deep inside the city, or for somone who knew the way, he was going to rally what few he can find at those locations)

Alexander was in the middle of the carnage and he was happy (indeed happy). He could finally test his skills in a real fight and, as a Warrior, he couldn't be scared that easily, so he killed a dozen of enemies before looking for cover. "Bring it on!", he said to them.

Aleron considered dragging the End Bringer out of his pack, but remembered it was supposed to only activate when it wanted to and was therefore useless for the time being. Still cursing the attackers to every lower plane he could think of, he scooped up the Crown of Destiny and put it back on before digging out his crossbow. They would choose to attack after a day of heavy spellcasting! He had some illusions left, and lesser spells of the sort one impressed tavern wenches with ((cantrips)), but facing a dracolich he didn't give good odds of either working.

Gathering his breath Aleron shouted to rally the defenders. The crown kept prattling on about how it would make everyone bend over backwards for him, maybe that effect could counter the supernatural fear washing over the city.

((Working on Helnith now, promise!))

The one Ivor has penned is able to answer his questions (sorry for the name of the Capital...KI will have to tell you this).  Though they seem not too worried about being pinned.  

Aleron's speech does indeed rally the troops, and lifts some of the fear and dread.

((Now..it is time for the NPC's to show what they have))

The Mercenaries are true to their word, they put themselves between harm and the innocent when they can..even taking killing blows to save townspeople.  A small group of them are keeping the dracolich busy..seeming to have no fear at all.  They are fighting recklessly, however, as if caught up in some form of bezerk rage (would explain the no fear part).  They will not last long.

Meanwhile walker is casting his druidic spells, binding enemies..summoning lightning..and the like.  Until...

Brook looks to Kerym (spelling?) "Keep the canteen safe, remember as long as any of that water lasts..I can not truly be destroyed." before he can say anything she rushes over to Walker and says something in an old tongue ((Sorry knowledge rolls fail, it's gibberish to whoever tries to hear it)).

Walker seems surprised..but nods.  He starts channeling her through his staff into the air.  Clouds gather..and it starts..raining.  A gentle rain, not a raging storm or anything..what are these two doing?.  The remaining fear vanishes, and the dracolich lets out a bellow of pain.  Whatever this rain is..it does not like it at all.  Any wounds the group has taken, or fatigue they have..starts to vanish.
